La Collette Tower

The La Collette Tower located at Mount Bingham St Helier Jersey is one of the original Martello Towers. It now forms part of the Jersey Field Squadrons real estate. It like many of the Island defence structure became seconded during the German Occupation. During this time changes were made to its stucture and surrounding the Base of the Tower is a series of more modern WW2 defence tunnels and system now sealed off, but still visible. The Tower is in a good state of repair and visits to the Tower have been made on special events. The more modern land development has meant that the Tower is not located on the headland any more and buildings sit between the Tower and the coastline.
